Your Miles Tally for 2006 (Read 1106 times)

How many miles did you log?
I'm looking at 1670. I believe I would have done more if I was not constantly tapering, marathoning and recovering over and over...You lose three weeks of high miles, minimum, with each one.

I'll be right around 1850 by 12/31. Not bad, if I do say so myself, considering that this was my first year of real running. My long run pace went from a 10:52/mi on January 1 to a 8:19/mi last weekend.

578. I started tracking here in early May and was doing less than 10 miles/week at that time. And considering the last two months have been pretty difficult in terms of a death in the family and minor injury I think that's pretty good. I've probably done ~650 since I first started running in late March.

Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson

Matthew, this gives me SUCH hope! My long run pace is currently about 10:45-11:15. I would love to even get down to a 9 minute pace for ~10 miles. And your mileage is stunning! Hard work has certainly paid off for you!
